Tribendimidine

How tribendimidine the newest drug used to treat parasitic nematodes works


Tribendimidine is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic agent developed in China, at the National Institute of Parasitic Diseases in Shanghai. It is a derivative of amidantel.

In clinical trials, it was highly effective in treating ankylostomiasis, ascariasis and enterobiasis. However, animal studies suggest it is ineffective in treating Schistosoma mansoni or Fasciola hepatica disease.

Tribendimidine is associated with Shandong Xinhua Pharmaceutical Company Limited in Zibo, Shandong, China.
